Hi Dave do you have a link for this? All I’ve found so far is an article showing the Thai government were ‘thinking about’ this. I often travel from Singapore to BKK so this would affect me if so (although for now I can still travel from BKK to Singapore).

And while the symptoms are similar the viruses themselves are very different. With the flu strains there are vaccines and ant-viral treatments available. There are currently no commercially available vaccines or anti-viral treatments for any coronovirus strains. But there has been extensive work on MERS and SARS that may help develop a vaccine for this strain in a more timely manner.

There might not be problems getting into Thailand but if this gets rapidly out of hand then leaving might become an issue especially if they close all the ports down. Let's be honest, anything is possible.

I doubt Thailand would clamp down on people leaving the way China did to Wuhan

Main thing to look out for would be whether your home country requires you to self-quarantine upon return
